The Stonington hoodie, for the town that beat the Royal Navy twice. A medium-heavy cotton pullover with the Stonington vintage retro logo across the chest in white, made to be worn from the first cold morning to the last.

If you are buying one Stonington piece, this is the one that gets worn most: warm enough for the sideline, the dock and the drive home, and the hoodie that gets borrowed and never returned. It is the gift for the one who moved away from Stonington, and the one that arrives in time for the holidays if you order now.

Unisex pullover hoodie made from a medium-heavy fleece for warmth and durability. Regular fit with a three-panel hood, ribbed cuffs and waistband, and double-needle stitching at key seams; tear-away label. Runs true to size for adults. Fabric is 80% combed ring-spun cotton / 20% polyester; heather colors may use cotton–poly blends.

Settled in 1649 and Connecticut’s oldest borough, Stonington sits on a one-square-mile peninsula between Stonington Harbor and Fishers Island Sound. In 1775 the town traded fire with HMS Rose, and from August 9 to 12, 1814, four British warships bombarded the point for three days; two cannons on the shore answered them, and the fleet withdrew. Those two guns still stand in Cannon Square.

The borough kept going to sea. In 1820 Stonington sealer Nathaniel Palmer sighted the Antarctic mainland, the 1840 Old Lighthouse now houses the Stonington Historical Society museum, and the 1888 stone American Velvet Mill on Bayview Avenue has become studios. At the town dock, Connecticut’s last commercial fishing fleet still ties up, which is why the mark on this piece reads as a working harbor rather than a resort.

Product FAQs

How does your sizing work?

Every item is made to order, so please check the size chart on this page before you buy. Women's fitted tees run small; size up for a looser fit. Caps are one size with an adjustable strap.

How are items made and when will they arrive?

We make each item to order using premium blanks, embroidery and soft-hand prints. Production takes 2-5 business days (weekends and holidays excluded), then 4-10 days in transit via USPS, UPS or FedEx to U.S. addresses; most orders arrive within 6-15 business days. You'll get a tracking link the moment it ships. Any current shipping offer is shown in the bar at the top of every page and applies automatically at checkout, no code needed.

How do I send a gift?

Enter the recipient's address as the shipping address and your own as the billing address at checkout. Nothing ships with a price; the package includes a plain packing slip. Tracking goes to your email, not theirs. For birthdays and holidays, order two weeks ahead to be safe.

What's the return policy?

Made-to-order items can't be returned or exchanged for size or color, so please use the size chart and photos before ordering. If anything arrives defective, misprinted or damaged, send a photo and your order number within 30 days and we'll replace it or refund you.

How do I care for my item?

Apparel: wash cold, inside out, with like colors; no bleach; tumble dry low or hang dry. Embroidered pieces: iron inside out to protect the stitching. Caps: spot clean. Printed glasses and water bottles: hand wash only, no dishwasher, so the artwork lasts. Mugs and engraved glasses are dishwasher safe. Any item-specific care notes are in the description above.

All Stonington Connecticut Items

In August 1775 Stonington's militia repulsed HMS Rose — recorded by the Stonington Historical Society as the Revolution's first successful repulse of a British naval force.

Today the borough remains what it has quietly been for two centuries: one square mile of Federal and Greek Revival houses behind picket fences, the two surviving 18-pounders in Cannon Square still pointing at the harbor they defended, the 1840 granite lighthouse at the end of the point — since 1925 the oldest lighthouse museum in America — and, each December, a Christmas tree built entirely of lobster traps rising by the Town Dock.

Why People Visit Stonington Connecticut

Stonington balances genuine maritime history with preserved coastal village charm most New England towns have lost to tourism. Visitors come for the lighthouse climb, the harbor walks, the Federal-era architecture, the working fishing fleet, and the rare experience of a town that has been quietly itself for over two hundred years. It is photogenic, walkable, and uncrowded compared to neighboring Mystic. History, food, and the salt air sit side by side in a way that rewards a slow afternoon.
